"Take the piofit out of war" i the
slogan adopted hy an international
association of machinists which it
working for universal peine.
The machinists have gone to the
root of the matter Ul it he un
derstood that there will he no more
profit in wars, and there will he no
more warn.
In ancient times, kings went to war
against each other for private glory
or revenue, or for the acquisition of
territory, or for mere loot.
The principle in much the same
today, but the lust for gain is not
confined to the kings or rulers.
Leaders in every country see that
there is great profits to he made out
of war. and they are not opposed
to war.
If the machinists get their idea
adopted by the people of the world,
they will do more for universal peace
than nil the disarmament conferences
that could be held between now and
doomsday.
RAILROAD RATES AND WAGES
Railroad 'off icials say that the scale
of wages for rail employees, as fix
ed by the rail labor board, is much
higher than the wages being paid for
similar work in other lines of in
dustry. As a result, many railroads
are having much of their work done
by contract at substantial saving.
There is evidently something wrong
with the whole railroud situation.
The public is clamoring for a reduc
tion of both freight and passenger
rates, which, it is claimed, aie ham
pering business.
As an illustration, not long ago a
man bought n thousand bushels of
corn in Iowa for IM tents a bushel
and shipped it to his f.uni in Otegon.
The freight i lunge was lit tents a
bushel. He got his ciirn laid down foi
70 cents a bushel, but the fanner
got only IM cents.
Railroad ihatges aie too high, or
else everybody else is mulct paid

IN GERMANY
Germany seems to be successful in
outwitting the allies since the armis
tice was signed that she has just
made a substantial reduction in her
income taxes.
Under the new rate, the German
with an income of 1,000.000 marks
a year will pay income tax of 385.000
marks. The former rate was 551,000
marks.
Similar cuts have been made on nil
other big incomes down to 50.000
marks a year. Rut the mark is so
worthless that the 500,000 line lets
everybody out.
There are worse things for taxpay
er, apparently, than losing n war.
All this dtmand for women's
rights simply means that they are
